Hunt was driving a black BMW SUV Monday and tried making a left turn. An eyewitness tells us Hunt struck a sedan and then collided with a Honda SUV. Hunt was visibly shaken, and witnesses escorted her to a lawn chair on the sidewalk.

We’re told paramedics evaluated Linda on the chair and then determined she needed to be taken to the hospital. The witness tells us the other drivers only suffered minor injuries.

Hunt has been a fixture on ‘NCIS,’ appearing in over 200 episodes. She’s also done voice work on video games and voiced Grandmother Willow in Disney’s “Pocahontas.”

Law enforcement sources confirmed only one person from the accident was hospitalized. At this time, the cause of the accident is under investigation.

We reached out to Linda’s rep to check on her condition, but have not yet heard back.
